Abstract
The invention relates to an array and a method for illuminating a skin surface of an examined person, especially the face, with the purpose of examining and determining the effect of color on the skin surface. Several light sources having different colors are provided for illumination. The intensity of said light sources can be adjusted individually.
Claims16
A device for illumination of skin surface of subject for the purpose of examining and judging the color effect produced by the skin surface, said a device comprising:
- at least first and second light sources for emitting colored light, said second light source emitting a color different from said first light source color, said light sources adjustable in intensity
- wherein multiple groups of light sources of different color are provided, and wherein the light sources of each of the respective color groups are adjustable as a unit with respect to their intensity.
A device for illumination of skin surface of subject for the purpose of examining and judging the color effect produced by the skin surface, said a device comprising:
- at least first and second light sources for emitting colored light, said second light source emitting a color different from said first light source color, said light sources adjustable in intensity
- wherein the light sources are provided upon at least one mounting rail.
A device for illumination of skin surface of subject for the purpose of examining and judging the color effect produced by the skin surface, said a device comprising:
- at least first and second light sources for emitting colored light, said second light source emitting a color different from said first light source color, said light sources adjustable in intensity
- wherein the light sources are provided on the ceiling of a room which can be darkened.
A device for illumination of skin surface of subject for the purpose of examining and judging the color effect produced by the skin surface, said a device comprising:
- at least first and second light sources for emitting colored light, said second light source emitting a color different from said first light source color, said light sources adjustable in intensity
- at least one supplemental white light source, wherein the intensity of the supplemental light source can be adjustable.
A process for illumination of the surface of the skin of a subject for the purpose of examining and determining the color response characteristic of the skin surface, comprising:
- (a) providing at least first and second light emitters for emitting light of different colors,
- (b) illuminating said skin surface with one or more of said light emitters at a fixed intensity, and
- (c) illuminating said skin surface with one or more light sources to bring about a change in the balance of colors illuminating said skin surface
- wherein the light sources are adjustable in their intensity via a scaled adjusted element.
A process for illumination of the surface of the skin of a subject for the purpose of examining and determining the color response characteristic of the skin surface, comprising:
- (a) providing at least first and second light emitters for emitting light of different colors,
- (b) illuminating said skin surface sequentially with respectively one of the light colors with defined illumination intensity, and
- (b) illuminating said skin surface with one or more of said light emitters at a fixed reference intensity while illuminating said skin surface with one or more light sources to bring about a change in the balance of colors illuminating said skin surface
- wherein the light sources are adjustable in their intensity via a scaled dimmer.
